"How do you feel?" I asked as John sat up and looked around.
"Alive. No, I feel much better than being just alive, but that is something that I am thankful for. What did you do to my body?" John asked as he sat up.
"He cured you of what was killing you. That should be enough, considering where we are," Candace said, crossing her arms, and John looked over at her and then at Growl.
"I suppose so. Can't be mad about that! Who are you? You don't look all that human to me, even if you are the shape of one. I ain't never seen eyes that glowed that blue or glowed at all. You are like one of those super people or something like that, right? Like Superman, the Kent Clark guy, or over ever it is," John said as he turned back to me.
"Something like that. I was human, but now I am changed, you could say. Are you two fine to stay here with Growl? I am going to seal you three in here while I clear the rest of the area up. Once all dangerous things are caged, then I will get you both back up top," I explained, and Candace nodded.
"This is fine. Out of all the creatures brought here, Growl is the only one that won't actively try to kill you if you treat it nice," Candace explained as she stroked the blue fur of Growl.
I could tell that she didn't really like me, but I wasn't sticking my dick in her, so she didn't have to. She still understood this was the way it had to be from her body language, but it also said that she didn't have to like it. I had to hope that more people that were disagreeable would take her approach.
People were allowed to not like things and not participate in certain things, but some things were going to happen, hell or high water. The faster everyone could see this, the easier my job would become, but I don't think anyone cared about how easy my job was.
"I don't mind not playing with them damn doggo again! I really thought I was a goner!" John laughed, scratching the back of his head.
I nodded and walked over to put my hand on the wall, creating a hexagon barrier like the cages. I also made some small lights to let them see. I figured that, while I was at it, I grew some strawberries and raspberries.
"I won't be that long, but there is some fruit here if you are hungry," I called to them, but neither raced up to grab the food.
???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????
"Thanks, but I will wait until I get back up top," Candace said and turned her back to me.
"I am not that hungry yet, but if I try one, I will let you know how they taste!" John said, and I shrugged and turned.
I personally didn't care if they ate them or not, but Candace's turning her back to me did spurn me slightly, but I brushed it off. I knew there were going to be people like this, but that didn't make them bad people. I didn't need to touch Candace to know that she was a good person, or Growl wouldn't let her pet him.
I walked back to the main area, and Fllna called to me as I passed through.
"You didn't die?! You are powerful! Are you sure that you don't want to breed me?" Fllna called to me, and I waved to her.
"If you only knew the list of women you would have to fight, you might not be so excited to get a chance with me," I laughed as I passed through.
"I don't need to use my fist now! I can fight them only using my words!" Fllna declared, and I stopped to turn back to her.
"What do you mean, only your words?" I asked curiously. Eddie wasn't screaming for help, so I figured that I could spare a moment for this.
"See? My words made you stop, but they can make others do more. The spoken word is mighty, but the Felnka's words have real power. Why do you think the men all did what they did? I used my words, and they had to listen," Fllna explained, but I wasn't really understanding.
"You didn't speak, so how did your words do that?" I asked, assuming that they had some sort of telepathy.
"I speak with my mind," Fllna said, and then her voice was inside my head. 'Do you hear me?'
'Yes, I can speak like that as well, but only others that can do this can hear me, like my girls,' I explained with my thoughts. "But it is better to talk like this unless a private conversation is needed."
"I can use this to control the mind of others and force them to give up before the fight starts!" Fllna declared and then gave me a look that made me uncomfortable. "Does that mean you will breed me now?"
"No, that does not, but it is a cool ability. I wonder if it only works with brain power? Would be quite the ability if it made you more physically stronger with more people around you," I said, thumbing my chin.
"I will not give up. I have given my people's lives to keep our secrets safe, but you have made their sacrifices for nothing. You are responsible for me now, and you must give me more people to lead!" Fllna declared, and I rolled my eyes.
"You want me to breed you enough times that you can make a new village?" I asked skeptically, but Fllna shook her head.
"No, you will need many more than just one village! I will give you an army of warriors and builders! If we start now, we could have a village in thirty days!" Fllna declared, and I let out a sigh.
